Door "stay put"
thingiverse
So a total overhaul is necessary, but this is the first draft I came up with. I typically prefer to have the door slightly ajar, just a bit of airflow, but not fully open to block some sunlight. I grew weary of angularly shaped items, and the fact that they disrupt the rubber seal along the bottom of the door. So I 3D printed an adjustable stay, the top handle is spring-loaded so it snaps into place when turned clockwise, engaging ramped grooves inside, but you can pull out (compressing the spring and disengaging the grooves) and let it turn counterclockwise letting the foot down, thus securing it in place. The foot pressure is adjustable by adding or removing rubber bands. I could have used actual springs, but decided rubber bands were abundant enough, and made for easy calibration.
